I don't know. Maybe my expectations were too high after seeing 40 Year Old Virgin, and seeing the rating on this site. There were a lot of funny lines in the movie, but no hilarious ones. There weren't really any super funny scenes. No rich set-ups and pay-offs. No innovative photography. Was there a message? Must have missed it.
Don't get me wrong, overall, I enjoyed it. I like the quirky quasi-ad-libbed style; it worked in The 40 Y.O.V., e.g. the donkey in Tijuana conversation. The problem is that this entire movie is scripted (or not) this way. I think it made the movie lose direction at times.
My biggest disappointment was that I wanted to see a great comedy, but ended up seeing a so-so relationship movie.
